Trump Says Cuba ‘Ready to Fall’ After Capture of Maduro: ‘It’s Going Down for the Count’
President Donald Trump has asserted that Cuba’s communist regime is “on the verge of collapse” following the apprehension and detention of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro over the weekend.Addressing journalists aboard Air Force One on late Sunday, the president characterized Maduro’s apprehension as a pivotal moment in the Western Hemisphere, cautioning that Cuba can no longer depend on Caracas for oil, financial support, or security.
“Cuba is ready to fall,” he said. “I don’t know if they’re going to hold out.”
When asked whether the White House was preparing military action against the country, Trump dismissed the need: “I think it’s just going to fall. I don’t think we need any action. Looks like it’s going down. It’s going down for the count. You ever watch a fight? They go down for the count, and Cuba looks like it’s going down.”The remarks followed after Saturday’s operation that led to the apprehension of Maduro and his spouse, Cilia Flores, who now confront federal charges in New York associated with an alleged narco-terrorism conspiracy.
Subsequent to the operation, Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that Cuban operatives directly safeguarded the beleaguered leader. Cuba announced on Sunday that 32 military and police personnel were killed during the operation, declaring two days of national mourning.Trump confirmed the reports when speaking to reporters on Air Force One: “A lot of Cubans were killed yesterday. There was a lot of death on the other side. No death on our side.”
Also on the flight, Senator Lindsay Graham (R-SC) praised Trump’s intervention and also warned that Cuba’s “days are numbered
